The Matt Ruatsale Homestead in Valley County, Idaho, in the vicinity of Lake Fork, Idaho, was built in c.1915. The house was moved to its present location from the Ruatsale homestead site sometime prior to it being listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1][2]

It is a log house approximately 21 by 30 feet (6.4 m × 9.1 m) in plan, built of hand-hewn logs. It is partitioned into four rooms. The east-west partition protrudes through exterior walls in traditional Finnish style.[2]
